Obese the word

I am obese. The first time I saw the word on a medical report it really hit me how much I had gained. I tried losing, failed and gained more and am finally going to get to a normal weight. I knew I was overweight, but I didn't realize how much until that moment.

    The Wii fit told me I was obese. right after the little evil scale person said "umph" when I stepped on the pad. I was devestated. I didn't think I was that bad. But I gotta tell you, I had never thought I would be so happy to become "over weight" in my life.

    I used to be "Super Morbidly Obese", and now I'm just "Obese" at 222lbs. It's honestly ironic to me, because this is what I look like, and I'm obese. I'm actually thrilled, but am still working. 20 more pounds wouldn't hurt my feelings.

    We can overcome this epidemic will willpower and determination plus the help of discipline. I started out at 300lbs and didn't give up, Till this day I continue to work my *kitten* off with no plans on stopping anytime soon. It has to be a lifestyle change not a temporary fix so keep pushing and keep busting *kitten* in the gym and in the kitchen! (eating clean of course)LOL! Let the inner beast out and watch what happens! we can all go from Obese to Beast!!:smile:

    To my ears that word always sounded fowl. Then *Boom* my doc was
    calling me it and documenting it. I thought I was doomed. The medical
    establiment told me I was hopeless in so few words. My treatment
    then was leading in two directions: Wls (which I am personally
    objective to) or a rather large coffin. I set out to defy what options
    they laid before me and worked to change all I could about my
    food/fitness.No more Obesity/obese here.
